ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “Pompeo makes unprecedented visit to Israeli West Bank settlement and the Golan Heights | ABC News” – below is their description.
The United States government says it will stop funding any human rights organisation which supports boycotting products made in Jewish settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories. The US Secretary of State broke with decades of policy to visit a Jewish settlement in the West Bank. At a winery, Mike Pompeo said the US would label settlement products as “made in Israel”, even though most countries consider settlements illegal under international law and an obstacle to peace. Mr Pompeo said boycotting products to pressure Israel to comply with international law is anti-Semitic. Human rights groups say peaceful boycotts are not racist and such moves jeopardise the fight against actual anti-Semitism. Subscribe: http://ab.co/1svxLVE
